Many very interesting articles of propaganda and principles are to be found there, as well as remarkable poetries impressed with a high ideal of justice and freedom.
It was during the years 18 that he published THE HUMANISPHERE, “ANARCHIST UTOPIA”, in Le Libertaire, journal du Mouvement Social, which appeared in New York, published, written, managed, dispatched by Déjacque alone. He was a poet, and his verse, of a rough eloquence, like his prose, had no other goal than the revolutionary propaganda to which he devoted all his labor. Exilé alors, non sans avoir connu les procès politiques, la prison, les persécutions de toute sorte, il continua dans les journaux anglais, belges, américains, à défendre les idées libertaires, n’hésitant pas à contredire, en d’ardentes polémiques, ses frères proscrits, Ledru-Rollin, Proudhon même, auquel il ne pardonnait pas d’exclure la femme de la cité anarchique. Subsequently exiled, not without having known political trials, prison, persecutions of all kinds, he continued to defend libertarian ideas in the English, Belgian, and American newspapers, not hesitating to contradict, in ardent polemics, his proscribed brothers, Ledru-Rollin, even Proudhon, whom he did not forgive for excluding woman from the anarchist city.Įn effet, Déjacques fut un anarchiste de la veille, un anarchiste avant le nom depuis les journées de juin, où il combattit au rang des insurgés, et sans doute bien auparavant, quoiqu’il ne soit connu que dès cette époque, il ne cessa de protester par les paroles et par les actes contre la réaction bourgeoise il comprenait qu’une république ainsi dirigée devait fatalement aboutir au Coup d’État. Indeed, Déjacque was an anarchist of yesteryear, an anarchist before the name since the days of June, where he fought in the ranks of the insurrectionists, and undoubtedly well before, though he is known only from this time on, he did not cease to protest by words and deeds against the bourgeois reaction he understood that a republic thus directed was to lead inexorably to the coup d’etat.
A ce titre, l’HUMANISPHÈRE de Déjacques est une des œuvres qui méritent le plus d’être placées dans notre bibliothèque. Le but de notre société des TEMPS NOUVEAUX est de publier tous les ouvrages qui ont eu leur part d’influence dans le développement de l’idéal anarchique. For this reason, Déjacque’s HUMANISPHERE is one of those works which most deserve a place in our library. The goal of our association, TEMPS NOUVEAUX, is to publish all the works which had their share of influence in the development of the anarchist ideal.
